"I'm just taking things as they come. I'm in a magical relationship right now. And of course I want it to be ours, and low key... This is the one thing that's been mine about my personal life," she said.

The musician, who previously dated stars including Jake Gyllenhaal, Harry Styles and Taylor Lautner, admitted the attention on her personal life put her off dating for a long time before she met Calvin.

"You know, I went out on a normal amount of dates in my early 20s, and I got absolutely slaughtered for it," the 26-year-old added.

Taylor only recently gushed about their "magical relationship" - what went wrong?

"And it took a lot of hard work and altering my decision-making. I didn't date for two and a half years. Should I have had to do that? No."

The Love Story singer and Calvin - real name Adam Wiles - were set up by mutual pal Ellie Goulding who introduced them at the BRIT Awards afterparty in London in 2015.

She said: "How did I set up Taylor and Calvin? It just kind of happened. They're both good people, both dear friends. I thought it might work - and it did.

"Calvin is a really great mate and he's so fantastic, and Taylor is such a cool person who I love. I thought, 'They're both really awesome and both really tall, they'll brilliant together.'"

Last month the pair partied together at Coachella, with a source saying at the time: "Taylor is super excited that she can support Calvin this weekend and give him her undivided attention at Coachella."

While back in March they shared a stream of loved-up pictures when they celebrated their year anniversary on a sunshine getaway.
